I made it darker, but I felt like it was losing the details in the transitions. And it looks different on different monitors. I also made the nebula itself brighter—it loses the sense of depth. I might post some versions later.
The brightness of the nebula is fine.
To add depth, the LocalHistogramEqualization tool in PixInsight usually works—you just need to adjust the settings.
Also, move the sliders a bit in HistogramTransformation—I’m sure the image will look even more impressive.

The black point could be shifted a bit; there's not enough contrast between the nebula and the background.
